             Summary: Add support for OTF/PostScript subsetting
                 Key: PDFBOX-3758
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3758
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: FontBox
    Affects Versions: 2.0.5
            Reporter: Tobias Fischer


Fontbox has a very good TTF subsetter and I'd love to have this also for 
PostScript based OTF fonts.

I know that this is currently missing and building OTF/PS support is hard, but 
the recent Apache FOP release 2.2 seems to have added this to their codebase 
with FOP-2252. I think this should better be part of Fontbox/PDFBox.

Unfortunately I wasn't even able to get the FOP 2.2 OTF Subsetter to work with 
fonts on the local file system rather than embedded ones from PDFs. So there's 
probably still work to do...
